Great Britain 1899 2d "Jubilee" colour trial, SG200var

Great Britain 1899 2d "Jubilee" colour trial, SG200var.

A very fine and fresh unused example, with original gum, with purple head plate and scarlet duty plate.

A scarce colour trial, particularly in such attractive condition.

These De La Rue colour trials were prepared in 1899 for the 1 shilling green and carmine issued in 1900.
